Play Dough - gluten-free, Have You Bought It?

The first time, I thought it could not have been from the play dough. But the second time, months later, I know she was glutened from it. It must be from not washing her hands and putting her hands in her mouth right? I don't think she's sensitive to it through her skin, but I guess I don't know since she's not handling wheat or anything.

I saw the gluten free dough from discount school supply. Has anyone bought that? Is it worth the cost? Have you bought anything else you like or made any that you like?

Thanks!

Someone just published a gluten free play dough recipe on Recipezaar.com. I've never tried it myself but it's the same recipe I've seen before and others have said it works well.

Our pre-k teacher tried the gluten-free playdough and I also made my own for her on occasion. The homemade one was better...and definitely safer. I've also tried the Crayola modeling clay which is claimed gluten-free. Ours was not. I called Crayola and they told me that it is made on shared equipment so it may have cross-contamination issues despite their efforts to clean equipment.

I'd recommend making your own. If your child is really sensitive, it's the only way to be truly safe. And it really doesn't take that long to make.

Good Morning

I bought gluten-free Play Dough from this website and it is AWESOME!!

I am in Canada and had it shipped to a friend in the states and then had it shipped up here. It was worth it. My 3 1/2 year old lil girl loves it. It is just like regular play dough. She got it for Christmas and it never dries out, fun and SAFE!!

I make gluten-free playdough for my 5 year old son's class. It's very easy ... I double the batch and only make it every 2 months.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
